I'd like to be able to print envelopes from my address book in Word but I have no clue how to add people to it. The only address in the book is mine. Can I export my mac address book into Word somehow? I tried the help menu in Word but there's nothing mentioned about adding people no matter how you want to do it.
Thanks.

It's a 2 step process:
1. Export your address book to CSV
2. Perform a mail merge in Word

A quick Google shows many different scripts and tools that can export your mac address book to CSV but I've never tried to do it myself so you'll need to have a dig around for something that suits your needs. Perhaps someone else can recommend one.

For step 2 there's a Word for mac mail merge 'tutorial' here.
